Soap stars are always a staple on the BBC talent show, with EastEnders' Davood Ghadami and Holby City's Joe McFadden among this year's soapland contestants. However, Coronation Street favourite Alison told The Sun that she didn't fancy a spin around the dancefloor during her time off from the ITV soap, deciding to concentrate on her family life instead. "I was offered a few of the celeb shows such as Strictly Come Dancing (during my break) but I just didn't fancy it," she told the publication. "My main aim (for my time away from Corrie) was to spend time with (my daughter) Daisy, you don't get any awards for being a good parent but it is the most important job in the world." But Alison did take on another acting role during her break from Coronation Street - in Sky One sitcom Sick Note alongside Rupert Grint and Nick Frost. "I was very lucky to work on series two of a comedy called Sick Note which is on Sky One," she explained. "There is room for (me) to return in series three which would be great. It was fantastic to work with Rupert Grint and I also got to do some scenes with Lindsay Lohan, who was really lovely." Meanwhile, Alison will be returning to Weatherfield this Christmas, with her comeback storyline reported to include her character Carla Connor bedding her former partner Peter's half-brother Daniel. "On her return to the Cobbles this Christmas, she'll really stir things up by sleeping with Daniel, Peter's half-brother," a source told The Sun. "Peter will find out when Daniel starts boasting about how steamy things got between him and Carla. "Peter tries to play it like he doesn't care, but he clearly does and Daniel takes great pleasure in winding him up, knowing their history together."
